Summary
What skills and experience we're looking for
This post offers a rarely available and exciting opportunity for an inspiring and dynamic teacher of Art.
You will be joining a supportive team in a growing school, teaching across the age and attainment range at both Key Stage 3 and 4 in an environment where students are well behaved and keen to do well. At Key Stage 3, year 7 students study one period of Art per week and year 8 and 9 students study two. The breadth of the curriculum includes painting, drawing, textiles, clay and photography.
Art is a popular choice for our students at GCSE with a total of 5 Art groups each in years 10 and 11 and results are consistently strong. We currently offer Fine Art, Art and Design and Photography at GCSE. An ability to teach KS3 textiles and Photography to GCSE would be an advantage.
At RMS, we are looking for a teacher who:
• Has excellent subject knowledge and strong teaching skills
• Is able to build positive relationships with all learners and is committed to raising attainment of all students
• Will work collaboratively within the Art team
• Is willing to commit to extracurricular activities that add value to the school and local community
• Is able to respond positively and creatively to the changing expectations of the subject
What the school offers its staff
In return, we can offer:

• High priority given to staff and student wellbeing
• A dedicated and hardworking team who place students at the heart of everything
• Supportive families who value education and great students who want to learn
• A well-resourced curriculum area supported by a Technician
• A broad, exciting and personalised curriculum with a focus on collaborative planning
• A full programme of trips and visits, giving you the chance to share in making positive memories with students
• Consistently excellent student attainment and progress
We pride ourselves on our ethos and culture which promotes positive relationships and behaviour. In our most recent Ofsted report (Nov 2022), inspectors observed that ‘“Lessons are calm and purposeful and led by knowledgeable, passionate teachers. Pupils show dedication to learning and pay close attention to their teacher’s instruction”’.
We have high expectations of all our students and are committed to the personal and professional development of our staff. Our flagship CPD programme includes courses suitable for professional development at all career stages including preparation for middle and senior leadership.
